The 36-year-old lawyer tied the knot to the Hollywood hunk in Venice, Italy, on Saturday, wearing a designer wedding dress by Oscar de la Renta.

The beauty has heaped praise on her wedding dress designer for helping to make her big day extra special by creating a custom-made French lace gown.

Speaking to Vogue magazine, she said: "George and I wanted a wedding that was romantic and elegant, and I can't imagine anyone more able than Oscar to capture this mood in a dress.

"Meeting him made the design process all the more magical, as he is so warm and such a gentleman."

The 82-year-old designer worked closely with Amal to ensure he designed the exact dress she wanted and hopes he made her dreams a reality.

He added: "It's the most important dress in the life of a woman.

"Any girl from any walk of life dreams of that special dress, and I try to make that dream a reality for her.

"Amal and I looked at a lot of evening dresses and wedding dresses together, and we discussed what she liked. That gave me the idea of what she wanted."
